I've been interested in pipes and tobacco for fifteen years, but have not been active in the hobby the entire time. I've lately 'rediscovered' my pipes and with pleasure. I've spent the last month cleaning and polishing and otherwise holding them and trying not to say "preciousssss" too often. I'm told it creeps people out. I've been trying some new tobaccos and I have some samples from Boswell's on the way. I'm also waiting on a few ebay parcels to arrive. PAD and TAD are kicking in. My next goal is to get some bale jars to keep my tobacco happy and some pipe furniture to do the same for them.
Other interests include dogs, reading, camping and music in almost any form. I like to cook as well, but find my resistance to authority makes its presence known in the kitchen - I never use recipes - it's nearly a physical aversion. I may start out intending to use it, but inevitably I either get rid of the recipe completely or change it considerably. I consider recipes more like friendly suggestions. Needless to say, I'm not very good at baking, though I'm getting better as I come to better understand it.
I hope to get to know everyone here better as well -
